LONDON, May 1.-The first division in com
mittee the coercion bill disclosed an immense
reduction in the government majority. Their
rnonotonous 101 had fallen to 81, and Mr..
Healys proposed amendment to insert the word
crime in place of the word ''offense' was re-
jected by only 81 votes. Since the division on
Mr.. Healy's amendment the government,
alarmed at the result, have Instructed their
whips" to secure a full attendance of sup
porters for every future session throughout the
committee stage. But it is doubtful whether
the Conservatives will respond with any great
degree of alacrity. The vehemence of party
feeling in favor of the bill is collapsng partly
through wearied int terest and partly on account
of the peaceful condition of the Irish people
under evaporation. The Parnellite tactics
continue to protract obstruction and wear out
the coereiorists Mr. Healy, in the absence of
Mr. Parnell, has led the way in placing Oh record
host of propositions to amend the bill. His
plan is to meet cloture, when it is applied, by
renewed amendments in the shape of new clauses.
The government will thus be driven to apply
cloture to the amendments seriatm. and the
principle of gag law will be so long drawn out
by this process as to force very palpaby upon
the attention of the people its merits dement's

development of West Virginia.

Col. A. G. HAIRY is largely interested
in Western Pennsylvania railroads, and
president of the West Virginia Railroad,
which runs from the Pennsylvania State
line near Fairhaven, the terminus Of the
Southwest Pennsylvania Railroad,
through Monongahelaa and Preston eoun-
ties, West Virginia, to the main line OF
the Baltimore and Ohio near Newburg,
a distance of about forty miles. In talk
ing about West Virginia Mr.. Hairy said
to representative of the New York
Tribune: "The development of the coal
and iron properties in West Virginia has
already shown it 10 be full OF wealth in
mineral resources, but its development
is only begun. On the line OF our road,
for instance, we pass through 10000
acres of coking coal, which is natural
extension of the Connellsville coking
field, and is underlaid with iron, lime
stone, fire clay, glass sand, building
stone and Ligonier block paving stone
a wonderful diversity of minerals. The
competition OF the Southwestern coal
and iron fields with Pennsylvania is
making iron men figure closely on the
cost of manufacturing iron and steel. 1t
has been demonstrated that West Vir-
ginia can make that product from 81 to
So less ton than it is made in Pennsyl-
varia, and as low as anywhere in the
United States. Such scientific experts
as DR.. /. S. Stevenson, of New York,
Professor |. c. White, Of the State Uni
yersity Of West Virginia, and Professor
Leslie, Of the Pennsylvania State Geo
logical Survey, pronounce the coking
coal of this region equal to the best in
the Connellsville section. There are
several lines of railroads being pushed
into West Virginia, of which ours is one.
They are all made tributary to the Bal
timore and. Ohio or to the Pennsylvania
system, which are nearest this region,
and with their completion the country
will come to know more Of West Viz
ginia and its resources and the value
than is now known"
